“Deeply satisfying . . . such a unique, surprising, and fun tale with a swoony romance perfectly woven together.”—Natalie Sue, bestselling author of I Hope This Finds You Well
A few months ago, Ruby Ocampo’s mother, Adela, died at her desk at work. Now, lost and driven by a misplaced sense of obligation, Ruby’s taken a job at the megacorporation where Adela worked for decades—and, to her horror, she discovers her mother’s ghost is trapped in the company Slack.
Ruby has never lived up to her mother’s expectations in life, but to set her free, she’ll have to resolve Adela’s unfinished business. She makes a list of all the ways she could live more like her mother would have wanted, covering everything from her stunted career to her love life (#5 on the list: date someone in a higher tax bracket!). Soon her quest to free Adela gets Ruby entangled with two men at the office who might be able to help: the estranged childhood friend her mom never approved of—who’s the only one she can confide in about this supernatural crisis—and the hot but vaguely sinister junior executive who’s been paying her a confusing amount of attention.
In order to give her mom a chance at the afterlife, Ruby must address her shortcomings one by one—and reevaluate her inherited ideas about love, work, and what’s truly important along the way.

Kritikerstimmen
“This is such a unique, surprising, and fun tale with a swoony romance perfectly woven together. It’s a deeply satisfying exploration of later coming-of-age, complicated family dynamics, and identity. Clare Osongco has a gift for writing incredibly real and relatable characters that linger long after the last page.”—Natalie Sue, bestselling author of I Hope This Finds You Well
“I tore through this book in a day. . . . I don’t think I’ve ever read anything like it before.”—Kate Spencer, bestselling author of In a New York Minute
“Clare Osongco absolutely shines in her adult debut, Unfinished Business. This is a story that pulled at my heartstrings, made me laugh, swoon, and cry.”—Danica Nava, USA Today bestselling author of Love Is a War Song
“Unfinished Business is delightfully quirky with a lot of heart. From the complicated family dynamics to the Filipino representation, I felt seen. Clare Osongco created a workplace comedy with a love triangle that will keep you on your toes.”—Joss Richard, internationally bestselling author of It’s Different This Time
“Brimming with tenderness, humor, and hope, this is an eccentric and romantic read that will take you on a journey through the cloud (literally), while also restoring your faith in the most important relationship of all—the one with yourself. Corporate girls suffering from ennui, this oneʼs for you.”—Carolyn Huynh, author of The Family Recipe
“Osongco’s first adult novel is a refreshing addition to the rom‑com shelves, brimming with workplace drama, complicated mother‑daughter dynamics, a dash of corporate espionage, and second chances at love. Ruby’s candor and authenticity make her a relatable first‑person narrator for those experiencing new adult corporate angst. . . . A wonderfully quirky rom-com for fans of The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston and The Kindred Spirits Supper Club by Amy E. Reichert.”—Library Journal
